December 13th, 11 p.m.
The fog began to disappear earl y in
the mornin?, affording an unobstructed
view of our own and the rebels' positions.
It being evident that the lirst ridge of
hills in the rear of the city, on which the
enemy had his guns posted, behind works
which could not be carried except by a
charge of infantry, Gen. Sumner assigned
that duty to Uen. 1 rench s division, which
was supported by Gen. Howard's. j
Ihe troops advanced to their works at
ten minutes before 12 at a brisk run, Ihe
enemy's guns opening upon them a very
rapid lire. When within musket range,
at the base of the ridge, our troops were
met by a terrible fire from the rebel in
fantry, which were posted behind a stone
wall and soiho houses on the right of the
line. Tliii checked the advance of our
men, and they fell back to a small ravine,
but not out of musket range. . .- ;
At this timo another body of men
moved to their assistance in splendid
style. Notwithstanding largo gaps were
made in their ranks by the rebel artil
lery when our troops arrived at the first
line of the rebel defences, they doubled
quickcd.and with lixed bayonets endeav
ored to dislodge the rebels from their
hiding places. ::s
Tho concentrated fire of the rebel ar
lillery and infantry which our men were
forced to face, was too much for them.
and the center gave way in disorder : but
afterwards they were rallied and brought
back. . . i
From that time the fire was spiritodlv
carried on, and never ceased until after
dark.
General Franklin, who commanded
the attack on the left, met with better
success. He succeeded, after a hard
day's fight, in driving the rebels about
one mile. At one time the rebels ad
vanced to attack him, but were hand
somely repulsed, with terrible slaughter,
and loss of between four and five hun
dred prisoners, belonging to General A.
P. Hill's command.
General Franklin's movement was di
rected down the river, and his troops are
eneauped to-night not fas from the Mas-
sahonix creek. Our troops sleep to-night
where tuey lougnt to-aay. . i
The dead and wounded are being car
ried from the field.
The following is a list of officers killed
and wounded aa far as ret known: Gen
eral Jackson, of the Pennsylvania re
serves, killed; Gen -Bayard, struck in the
thigh by a shell, and afterwards died;
Gen Vinton, wounded in the side, but not
seriously; Gen. Gibbons, wounded in the
band; Gen. Kimball, wounded in thigh;
Gen. Caldwell, wounded in two places.
but not seriously; Col. Sinclair, of the
Pennsylvania reserves, wounded serious
Iy; Col. Ueudrivkson, commanding lUh
New.xork btate militia, wounded fieri
ously. "
Tho following is the less of officers in
the 6th New Hampshire regiment; Col
Cress wounded in the abdomen, Major
Sturtvant killed, Adjutant Dodd killed,
Captain Murray killed, Captain Perry,
killed. i
The firing of musketry ceased about
six o clock this evening, but the rebels
continued throwing shells into the city
until 8 o'clock.
The position of the rebels was aa fol
lows: Gn. Longsireet was on the left,
and holding the main werks; Gen. A. P.
Hill and Stonewall Jackson wsre in front
of Franklin, with Jackson's right rest
ing on the Rappahannock, and Hill's
forces acting as a reserve.

at daylight in the morning. The troops
are in good spirits, and not In the least
disheartened.

The death of Louis Uhland, the Ber-
anger of Germany, is announced in the
papers which have just arrived. Though
his later years were passed in obscurity,
there have been few poets whoso produc
tions have had a wider circulation than
those ol Uhland, or exercised greater in
fluence on the mind of his age. He was
born at Tubingen in ii87; studied law,
which he abandoned for literature, devot
ing all his powers to the cultivation of
deep national and liberal sentiments
among his conntrymen. His death has
created ' a lively sensation in his own
country, and even in England.

The Culture of Sorghum in Illinois.
The growers of sorghum) in Illinois
held a convention at Rockfbrd, in that
State, a few days since, the results of
which are thus summed up by the Chi
cago Tribune : .
First, then, sorghum in all parts of tho
Northwes, where the larger varieties of
Indian corn perfectly mature is an ac
knowledged success. Its adaptation to
the soil and the climate, the ease with
which it can be cultivated, and the cer
tainty of a remunerative crop, are ac
knowledged, proved by experience which
has been long enough and broad enough
to satisfy all. '
Second, though tho yield of syrup is
large, (here the accounts may vary with
the variations of soil and temperature,
the perfection of machinery used, the
knowledge, care, and skill of manipula
tor,) and profitable at any figure that
syrup is likely to reach, the question
Can crystalized sugar be profitably pro
duced from the sorghuiu? is yet an
open one that the Convention was un
able to settle. A large number of sam
ples of sugar have beeu produced, but
mostly the result of experiments made
on a small scale, and without regard
to cost. But they prove the possibili
ty of making sugar from sorghum. Us
profitable production, in competition
with the cane is another matter, for the
solution of which longer trial, more cap
ital and additional experiments are re
quired. Third The amount of sirup
made in Illinois alone, this year, is esti
mated at two millions of gallons, of which
Winnebago county alone gave fifty thou
sand gallons. FourthIn moat of the
rural .districts, where the attention of the
farmers has been turned to sorghum, the
domestic sirup has nearly or quite driven
cane molasses out of the market. TLe
former is the clearest, the most tooth
some, and now-a-days much the cheap
est Fifth The consumption of saccha
rine food among the rural population,
where sorghum is grown, has largely in
creased famities that formerly content
ed themselves with four to six gallons of
molasses per annum each, now find a
barrel of sirup nose to much for the
year's consumption a fact of great im
portance to dentists and manufacturers
of arliCcial teeth, and not without value
to the pojiliral economist. This, we be
in ve, is a fair summary ef the conclu
sions arrived at, saying nothing of the
discussions which the ' manner ot plant
iug, cultivating, gathering and mauutac
turiujt provoked. The showing is emi
neutly satisfactory. '
